Social justice grants support community organizing, policy advocacy, leadership development, litigation, and programs that address the root causes of inequity. Funders increasingly offer flexible general-operating and multi-year support, and many prioritize organizations led by people from the communities most affected by injustice.
Private foundations lead social justice funding, including the Ford Foundation's equity-focused grantmaking, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation's work on racial equity, and the Open Society Foundations' support for justice and democracy. Donor collaboratives, community foundations, and progressive funding intermediaries also direct significant resources to this field.
Start by identifying foundations whose stated priorities match your issue area and approach, since social justice funders often focus on specific causes, populations, or strategies. Reviewing funders' published grant lists, building relationships before applying, and clearly articulating both your theory of change and community accountability all strengthen your chances.
